Phase 5 of Holmhurst Gardens is coming soon, bringing even more flexibility and affordability to Shared Ownership. The minimum initial share will be reduced from 25% to just 10%, making it easier for more buyers to get on the property ladder. In addition, as part of the new Shared Ownership model, a 1% gradual staircasing offering will be introduced, allowing residents to increase their share in smaller, more manageable increments, a welcome change from the previous 10% minimum increments. Best of all, this new approach comes with significantly reduced fees, making it more affordable to own more of your home over time.
